  1. Bijan has quite a few NIL deals. The dude is raking in cash. He’s also got a hot ass gf that’s a cheerleader at Texas and is backstage at every concert with artists. He’s a full blown celebrity in Austin. That’s what Ewers wants outside of playing time. Money, build his brand, and a starting spot. He’s not going to tech or aggy. I think Tech is in there to give his high school coach some good pub and aggy is in there so it looks like we beat them out honestly. Dude never considered aggy during his recruitment and he’s not stupid enough to play in that offense.

  3. Keep in mind. If Ewers comes here and Sark has him putting big numbers and has us winning 9-10 games, I wouldn’t be shocked to see Manning’s interest grow. Ewers could and probably is planning on going pro the minute he’s eligible. That means Manning would essentially be the starter and get starter reps the spring after his first season here. Basically he would simply have to wait 1 semester to have the keys handed to him. Ohio state had no idea what they had in Stroud and Miller when Ewers committed. The guy thought he had a fair shot at the starting position but quickly realized Stroud is a stud with more experience in that system. He’s not getting any reps till Stroud gets hurt or leaves. He would walk in and be the starter the minute he sets foot on campus. He’s also seen what Sark can do with JAGs. Anyone watching our offense saw that this offense will be killer if we can get a decent QB. Our QBs missed so many easy throws to wide open WRs. He also knows he gets Bijan and Worthy, two elite skill guys. ou is in rebuild mode, so we should have the advantage in that match up with all their coaches and talent leaving. Ewers gets to come in and be the “savior”. The guy that got us back to winning and beating ou. If he’s a true Longhorn like he said he was as a kid, no way he even remotely considers aggy. That would be a slap to his parents who are Longhorn grads.
  4. This country is pretty fucked up. I’ve never had a gun, don’t care to shoot guns, nor do I feel the need to get one. I get self defense, sure. But I find it pretty funny that I have to go through 8 years of schooling, so many continuing education courses, maintain multiple licenses, and have to follow so much regulation to do simple medical procedures on patients. Yet when it comes to something dangerous like guns, I can go to a gun show today in Texas and probably buy a semi-automatic rifle without anyone blinking an eye. This country isn’t interested in solving real world problems. Everything is political. I have a simple solution. Allow basic rifles for hunting and very basic handguns. You must go through a one year process of training, background checks, mental health check to obtain a handgun. You have to take yearly courses to maintain the ability to keep your handgun. You are limited in how many weapons you can buy. Eliminate semi automatic rifles. You don’t need one for self defense. We’re not having a war here. I bet those 3 simple measures would drastically decrease shootings. So there, you get to keep guns to protect yourself. Anyone who finds those simple measures unreasonable probably shouldn’t be allowed to have a weapon that can take a life.
  5. Mostly everyone is right here. I do want to point out that I firmly blame this athletic department and the people in charge. I will continue to repeat myself that until this athletic department prioritizes winning over revenue, we will always suck. We’re supposed to be the big swinging dick right? When was the last time we lured in a good coach or coordinator? You just watched two shit shows in LSU and USC show us how it’s done. We threw a market value offer that every coach is now getting to Meyer and got turned down publicly. Then privately we got turned down by every other coach until we resorted to hiring a fucking twice failed recovering addict that hasn’t won shit at a discount price. This program has fallen so far. Look at the south end zone. It sucks. Everything this athletic department tries to do, fucks this program worse. You think they’ve helped what so ever with NIL? Our AD continuous gets in the way of this program being successful. CDC needs to be in charge of all other sports and we need to bring in a guy that knows football. Why the fuck so you think Meyer wanted his own football AD that wasn’t CDC? Look at aggy, they fucking hired the Ole Miss AD after they got caught cheating. They know what they need to do to become successful. Make fun of that midget all you want, but he’s putting together a fucking badass class and they’re about to land two more 5 stars. They’ve got an elite DC that’s developing talent and they are pushing the narrative that they are about to take Bama’s spot as the top dog and their win against them is making these recruits buy in along with the cash they are dropping. I’m just so sick of watching this AD drag this program down. After realignment 10 years ago, they could have positioned our program to be better, instead they chased the fucking dollars with LHN. They stayed in a dying conference. They let our facilities become outdated and then reconstructed our end zone into a pathetic empty uterus. We play a shit schedule, with shitty coaches, with a shitty game day atmosphere, with entitled players that suck outside of two players. I’m a fucking die hard Longhorn fan of 20 years and I’ve never been so disappointed. Looking at our recruiting is a direct reflection of what the best players and even mediocre players think of us, we suck. And now we are hoping to have some shitty players from the portal help us fix this bc they cannot sell anything worth shit to good high school recruits. Rant over, TLDR, fuck everything.
  6. No he didn’t. He actually wanted to come here because he likes Austin and playing here only helps his own Tik Tok “fame”. He also likes our offense. The problem is we lost to Kansas and didn’t even make a bowl game and set new records for all time lows with our 6 game losing streak. And forget all of that. The main reason he isn’t coming here is because aggy threw enough money at the guys running his recruitment that they couldn’t say no. Had we done the same, he’d be in burnt orange. But apparently our BMD think players should feel lucky to play at Texas and that we are above playing the bag game. I know CTJ says he expects some unexpected news on NSD indicating we’re playing the game but I’ll wait to see it to believe it. If we are, we’re quite terrible at it.
  7. Dewberry has been a silent to aggy for a long time. Just like last year, this staff is wasting time on prospects that are not coming here. I was fooled once with Banks and he proceeded to drop a top 2 of Oregon and aggy. If he’s flipping, it’s not to Texas. These 9.95ers are simply trying to get clicks.
  8. Well…. I got fucked today.
  9. And Hudson just committed to TCU. This staff fucking sucks. Maybe we can fight Baylor and Tech for some recruits.
  10. LSU and USC, two dumpster fires right now, were able to hire great proven coaches meanwhile Texas continues hiring shitty unproven coaches. This is why we suck.
  11. Surprised he picked aggy over Bama. But he wasn’t coming here and hasn’t for a while. His dad basically said as much when he committed to us.
  12. One coach took an NFL team to the Super Bowl and the other got fired for showing up drunk to practices …. Yeah… it’s not the same.
  13. What a great college game and environment. I wish Texas had this type of game environment. Our south end zone is shit, empty with corporate suites. This is what makes college football special, yet we seem to want to create an NFL type of game day experience with a wine and cheese crowd.
  14. Ohio states WRs are making tough catches in crucial moments with DBs draped all over them. Outside of Worthy, our WRs drop easy passes that hit them in the hands with no one near them.
  15. They wouldn’t let him enroll early due to a class that didn’t meet their admissions requirement I believe. We truly lucked into him with Michigan fucking up and Sark having built a strong relationship with him.
  16. Yeah, so Herman and Mehringer watched JSN and thought he wasn’t good enough to play at Texas? Instead we got Troy Omeire, Kelvontay Dixon, and Dajon Harrison lmao. These jokes just write themselves. Not sure which if those two were worse than Strong thinking CeeDee Lamb wasn’t fast enough to play at Texas.
  17. Yup. Also Justin Jefferson, Jamar Chase, and Terrance Marshall on that LSU team.
  18. I’m very much enjoying Michigan spank ohio state here. Fuck that piece of shit fanbase.
  19. Also, any chance we can convince the Western Kentucky QB to grad transfer here if he has an extra year of eligibility? He’s from Victoria, Texas. 6’1 220 lbs. passed for 4600+ yards, 48 TDs/ 9 ints, with a 71% completion rate. If Sark isn’t tampering and getting a QB like this, then he’s clueless. Obviously, he’s already on the NFL scouts radar but this is a guy Sark needs to call up and say, I put Mac Jones, Jake Locker in the 1st round and 6 other QBs drafted . Come play in my offense and get national media attention and ink him a fucking big NIL deal instead of being a mid to low draft pick. If he says no, find the next QB that has proven he’s accurate and can pass at the college level.
  20. If this staff is banking on Ewers, we are truly fucked. That kid may be extremely talented but he has a very selfish and entitled attitude and this program honestly needs to get away from that. We need guys like Rojo to help build our culture. Find a guy at a smaller school that can make reads and get the ball out quickly. We don’t need a QB with NFL traits. We need a guy that can be a leader and simply run this offense. Obviously you take Ewers if he wants to come but I’m not sure he solves some of the deeper rooted issue with this program.
  21. This athletic department runs the football program like a corporate company that wants to maintain and image and maintain revenue. We do not run our program with the mindset of winning and we are not willing to do the things to compete with the likes of UGA, Bama, tOSU, LSU and aggy. Ironically, we want to be like Michigan watching this game but we are so far off from that as well.
  22. Yup. The only high end talent on this team are Zay, Bijan, Collins, and Whittington (when he’s healthy). All were 5 star players. As much as coaching matter, there is a reason guys like Orgeron, Miles, Smart, and Chizik can win championships. Recurring elite talent matters. Fighting okie light, baylor, tcu for recruits will give use 5-7 wins a year. Unfortunately elite players for the most part want to play for winning teams that develop talent and teams that drop bags. We don’t do any of those. I honestly think the only way to accumulate the talent we need until we can start winning and developing players is NIL… yet we dropped the ball on that as well.
  23. I’ll take average at safety over Foster and Schooler but yeah, I get it.
  24. Look at some of the players from Texas that we wanted that are impact players and pro prospects on other teams. We’ve constantly whiffed on top talent in the state and we wonder why our roster is full of Jags. How different does this team look with just a few players that we whiffed on… Garrett Wilson, JSN, Chris Owens, Kenyon Green, DeMarvin Leal, Demani Richardson, Jaylon Jones, etc. We basically end up with guys that should be fucking playing at Baylor, Tech, TCU. It’s frustrating.
  25. I really wish they would try and develop Jamison as a free safety. He has good instincts, can play the ball, and is fast. Instead they played a guy that runs a fucking 4.9, can’t cover, poor instincts, and doesn’t give a rats ass in BJ Foster.
